Apistogramma angayuara, I don’t think it’s in the hobby yet, but would like to get them.
As far as I know, that ain't a whole lot ?
For South America I would say the Apistogramma family
And Central America would be Amatitlania Nanolutea

Archocentrus multispinosus (Rainbow Cichlid) might be smallest CA... captive size said to be 3” though wild can get bigger.
A nanoluteus is the smallest Central American, for me they almost hit 4".
Herotilapia multispinossa gets a tad larger, mine easily hit almost 5"

I think the Checker Board Cichlid is the smallest SA Cichlid but may be wrong.http://www.tfhmagazine.com/details/...oard-dwarf-cichlid-dicrossus-filamentosus.htm
IMO the smallest SA in the hobby are probably Biotoecus, Taeniacara, and maybe certain species of Teleocichla. Pretty sure Biotoecus are smaller than even a lot of the Apistogramma species.
